My Characters Come From A Good Place.

I Don't Think That Any Scene [in Pineapple Express] Is Word For Word How You'd Find It In The Script. Some Of It Was Much More Loose Than Others. The Last Scene With Me, Danny [mcbride] And James [franko] In The Diner - There Was Never Even A Script For That Scene. Usually We Write Something, But For That Scene We Literally Wrote Nothing.

I Have Become A Giant Fan Of The Testing Process, Especially With A Comedy. I Mean, They Tell You What's Funny. It's Almost Tailor-made For People Who Shoot The Way We Shoot, Trying A Million Different Options And Versions Of Things. Because The Audience Doesn't Laugh At A Joke, We Put In Another Joke. If They Don't Laugh At The Next Joke, We Put In Another Joke. You Just Keep Doing Them And You Can Get The Movie To The Point Where Every Joke Is Funny, If You Have Enough Options In The Can.

I Don't Smoke Weed On Set All Day. I Just Want To Say That, You Know, Not All Day. After Lunch You Get Tired. What Can You Do? To Me, The Fact That A Character Smokes Weed Isn't Really What I Hang My Hat On Necessarily.
